Abstract
The experiment to determine particle size distribution of soil profiles was conducted at the West Side Field Station of the University of California, located in Fresno County, forty miles southwest of Fresno. Fresno County is in the southernmost quarter of the central valley of California, which is an elongated trough paralleling the eastern and western boundaries of the state. The valley is 500 miles long in a north-south direction and averages about 40 miles in width. The valley is surrounded by mountains except for the outlet into San Francisco Bay through which the valley rivers drain.
